The Washington Post did cover the Eugene Vindman press conference about Trump's call with MBS but they misspelled Khashoggi 🤦‍♂️ wapo.st/49yWBmd

How do you sign off on a headline like this? It’s not a prediction — he is forcing these to happen. And it amplifies his lies.

The New York Times reporter answering the question “Did Trump Manipulate the Stock Market?“ in the vertical video on the homepage is wearing a Star of David necklace. I wonder anyone there was aware it was visible, and I hope they don't get any flak for it.

And here's one with the benevolent face of David Moyes
April 12, 2025 at 3:32 PM
So I've been craving Moyesiah memes that mash up Everton and the messianism around me. For example:

But in New York City, and in particular along Eastern Parkway here in Brooklyn, the messianic imagery is all about the Lubavitch rebbe Menachem Schneerson, whose benevolent face can be found on bumper stickers and crosswalk signs and wrapped vehicles labeled “mitzvah tanks“

All of the Moyesiah memes I've been able to find out there play on Christian iconography. They put the Everton (or earlier West Ham) manager in Henrik Olrik's Sermon on the Mount or the Sacred Heart, or give him a halo

I knew Katz’s was not kosher, let alone for Passover, but I did not expect to be required to take some chametz with your matzo ball soup and brisket

“While human readers tend to focus on specific – often similar – topics, crawler bots tend to ‘bulk read‘ larger numbers of pages and visit also the less popular pages…which makes it much more expensive in terms of consumption of our resources.“

Who needs Taboola when you can build your own chumbox?

So where in the growth-hacking or fundraising cycle does the half-a-subway-car takeover fall?

First sighting last night of Beehiiv, which announced a $33 million Series B in April 2024

The last sentence could use a green light or something, but this feels honest and clear-eyed. Only a few people get this gift, but recognize it a gift and a stroke of luck, and enjoy it while it lasts.

Meanwhile, I caught up in Animal Farm, so I read the Téa Obreht introduction, written in 2020.

Even as it allows for the opposite to happen, it feels so naive in 2025.

Which one is it? How concerned should I be?
